Article Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases represent a challenge for biomedical research due to their high prevalence and lack of mechanism-based treatments. Because of the complex pathology of neurodegenerative disorders, multifunctional drugs have been increasingly recognized as potential treatments. We identified homobivalent γ-carbolinium salts as potent inihitors of both cholinesterases, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, and monoamine oxidases. Homobivalent γ-carbolines displayed similar structure-activity relationships on all tested targets and may present promising designed multiple ligands for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.

Objectives: Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3 (CLN3) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by progressive neurodegeneration. No disease-modifying treatments are currently available. Miglustat, a substrate reduction therapy, has shown preclinical efficacy in CLN3 models (conference abstract).

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability globally, with frequent cognitive sequelae affecting up to 60% of stroke survivors. Despite the high prevalence of post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI), early detection remains underemphasized in clinical practice, with limited focus on broader neuropsychological and affective symptoms. Stroke elevates dementia risk and may act as a trigger for progressive neurodegenerative diseases.

As plasma biomarkers like p-tau217 move towards clinical use in Alzheimer's disease (AD), it is important to understand how kidney function may influence their accuracy. Even mild chronic kidney disease (CKD) can alter biomarker levels, potentially impacting test performance. While accounting for renal function may improve specificity, it could reduce sensitivity without greatly changing overall diagnostic accuracy.
